Comment:
I was originally supposed to be online, but the first day he switched it to asynchronous. Funny because he wants you to go to his office hours to interact with students. Your grade is based on like six assignments total and he doesn't post grades so you don't know what you have till midterms or finals. Not sure how this man is a professor.

Steer clear from this professor's classes. Originally I signed up to be in-class, but Nartey made that class be online. This class was disappointingly easy, his teaching is not college-worthy. Extremely disrespectful, will ghost your email or not even acknowledge it, and most importantly, the pre-recorded lectures were awkward. Pathetic.

Does not ever post grades, ignores emails, rarely available outside class, and his lectures at a middle school level.

Comment:
This man and I interacted about twice, and these were times in which I emailed him my papers. He was extremely rude over email to me. His videos are terrible. His presentations could have been made by a fifth grader. He gets off topic in every video. He is unclear with assignment due dates. Doesn't give grades. Doesn't give feedback. Terrible.

Comment:
If you need a history class and only see this professor for a course, just don't take it. If you need history to graduate, just skip out, graduate late, do not take a class with this professor. He gave out 6 assignments, essays, no grades given, no feedback, terrible/long/off-topic videos, no interaction, no engagement, long off topic videos.

All exams are paper. If you know history, This class will be easy, if not, it might not be. Dr. Nartey is a nice guy, but the class was not organized very well.

Comment:
He has to be one of the worst teachers in New York state. He sent us slides that I could have put together in 8th grade and his videos were always off topic rants. He could never be clear with his assignments and when he wanted them done, but he made sure we knew every detail about his other class and that we should take it. 100% joke of a teacher.

So my class was originally in person during this year but switch to online since he thought it would be best for us. I didn't really enjoy the in-person version of his class since he would get off topic a lot. When online with his slides and lecture videos, he somehow found a way to get off topic during those. Nice guy, but not suited for teaching

Comment:
I was okay with Nartey, but it went downhill fast. We're online so he would post notes and lecture videos. In each video, he would talk and get off topic about his life, our "higher education", and that people wanted to know their grades (which he doesn't post at all). He is just disorganized, confusing, and gives little help. I would try to avoid

Comment:
Dr. Nartey is a very kind person but a horrible professor, at least for online. He makes no real attempt to teach, just sending his students old powerpoints and assigning essays on subjects they have to teach themselves. He does not tell the students their grades on the papers or give any feedback. I regret not dropping this class.

Nartey gets a bad rep but he's really not a bad guy. Can be very intimidating at first but he really is just a big teddy bear. Go to his office hours for help or if you miss a class and you'll see this. Just read the textbook by when you're suppose to and don't miss any of the few assignments and you'll be fine. 3 short essays

Comment:
Professor Nartey rants about his life and Africa for most of the class and regards himself highly. He yells at students for not reading the textbook but he teaches off of it anyways. He asks our opinions on the book and we have to decide what we want to discuss. He makes the tests so he should teach us what we should know. He also never gives an A

I'm not even going to call him professor because he does not deserve that kind of respect. He is one mean guy towards his students and if you don't agree with him on things he'll basically make you feel bad about yourself. Avoid him at all cost take any other professor besides him.

Professor Nartey has to be the absolute worst teacher at Siena College being in his class made me so upset because he was so mean and rude towards the students. You do not want to take him he isnt kind and he doesnt act how a professor should. If you take his class beware of him hes horrible.

The worst professor that I have ever had in my 3 years so far of college. He does not care about the students, he is unclear about everything, and goes off on political rants. His papers, and tests seem to be graded randomly, and have content that was not even taught in class. DO NOT TAKE HIM !!!!!!

Don't take this professor if you can. He talks about his own education every single class, and wastes half the class period talking about things that don't relate to the subject he is supposed to be lecturing on. You are not allowed to use the bathroom, or leave class at anytime, or you will not be welcome back into the classroom.

Comment:
I just had Dr. Nartey as a professor for a summer course and honestly, I have mixed feelings about him. He is a really good guy and means well and has a lot of knowledge he is excited to share, but does get off topic a lot. He isn't great at giving feedback, but makes it very clear with what he's looking for overall which is helpful.
